Full Changelog: v0.2.0...v0.2.1

v0.2.0

VexRAG 0.2.0

Upgrade from 0.1.3. This release refactors the CLI and core, tightens configuration defaults, improves retrieval persistence, and updates licensing and packaging.

License

• Project license changed from MIT to Apache-2.0 (pyproject.toml and LICENSE).

CLI and layout

• CLI logic moved to vexrag/usecases/ with thin handlers and presentation under vexrag/cli/ (vx scan, vx doctor, vx generate-cases).
• Legacy vexrag/web application modules removed; only a minimal package stub may remain for compatibility—do not rely on a bundled web UI.

Configuration (breaking)

• Legacy evaluations configuration paths removed; use the current scan evaluation builder/options.
• Cleanup after scan is enabled by default (poisoned corpus cleanup unless you opt out).
• Preflight now validates only the selected attack instead of preflighting the entire config surface.

Optional dependencies

• New extra: sentence-transformers — install with pip install vexrag[sentence-transformers] when using local embedding providers that need it.
• Vector store extras unchanged in spirit: qdrant, chroma, faiss.

Fixes

• FAISS corpus persistence is crash-safe and self-healing (atomic writes / recovery).
• rag_examples medium NQ examples adjusted for smoke and E2E stability; native vector-DB poisoner smoke configs added.

Examples and paths

• Example tree renamed from RAG examples/ to rag_examples/ (lowercase, underscore).
• Huge example subtree removed from the repo layout; see rag_examples/README.md for current small/medium targets.
• Sample RAG targets still default to http://localhost:8080 — run one example at a time.

Tooling and quality

• Strict mypy on vexrag/, expanded domain-structured tests, CI workflow updates, and PyPI publish workflow added.
• vLLM preflight support for configured providers.

Security notice

VexRAG is intended for security testing your own RAG in a controlled, isolated environment — not production. Attack tooling and poisoned corpora can harm systems if misused.

Upgrade checklist (0.1.3 → 0.2.0)

1. Re-read LICENSE (Apache-2.0).
2. Update scan YAML: drop legacy evaluations blocks; confirm cleanup default meets your workflow.
3. Point scripts and docs at rag_examples/ paths.
4. Install optional extras as needed: [faiss], [chroma], [qdrant], [sentence-transformers].
5. Re-run vx doctor against your config before long scans.
